*One of the good points about modern Aimpoints is that the battery life is so good you can store them with the optic turned on and replace batteries biannually or annually merely as a prophylactic. Meanwhile, the Army dismounts M68 CCOs and removes the batteries on racked rifles. It's disheartening to think how much the taxpayers paid to put all those sexy optics on all those weapons only to have y'all Doing It Wrong.
